Oakover Grounds

Oakover Grounds, located in the heart of the Swan Valley, reflects the rich heritage of the Yukich family, whose story began when Nikola Yukich planted grapevines in the Swan Valley in 1929. Four generations later, the family continues to honour its Croatian roots while embracing the unique climate and culture of the Swan Valley. In 1989, Nikola’s son Mark expanded their vision, acquiring 45-hectares from Houghton Estate to establish Oakover Grounds.

This new chapter in the family history celebrates tradition and provenance, producing approachable yet refined wines that capture the Mediterranean character of the region. Whether a shiraz, chardonnay, verdhelo or cabernet sauvignon, you’re sure to find a wine worth falling in love with. With a deep respect for its land and legacy, Oakover Grounds continues to create wine varietals that thrive in the Swan Valley’s warm climate, perfectly complementing its laid-back lifestyle. Oakover Grounds is a sensory delight where rich flavours, beautiful landscapes and warm hospitality converge.

Designed for enjoyment by all, Oakover Grounds offers a café, barrel bar, award-winning wines, sprawling grounds and versatile function spaces. The families of Perth regularly visit to experience the winery’s relaxed charm and indulge in its vibrant offerings. The winery also offers multiple options for serene, picturesque wedding and reception locations. Whether it’s ‘The Island’ in the middle of the lake, ‘The Deck’ on the edge of the lake with gorgeous views out over the water or the ‘Intimate Restaurant Setting’, it’s guaranteed to be an event that won’t be forgotten.

The Oakover Cellar Club is your opportunity to elevate your wine experience and secure exclusive benefits only available to members. Oakover Grounds is more than a winery—it’s a celebration of history, family and the enduring spirit of the Swan Valley, offering an experience that lingers long after the last sip.
